Update documentation with example for custom serialization

[chrismostert]

📒 Description

Adds a small snippet to the documentation on how to register a custom serialization function for a specific data type. This approach can be used to resolve issues like #917
(Apologies for the messy PR #976, please consider this PR)

🔗 What I've Done

Since no changes in the code were required, the documentation has been updated with a small code snippet.

💬 Comments

Please check if the snippet is informative enough and in the correct place in the documentation

I am wondering, if this example is too similar to this one, maybe we should expand that one, what do you think?

I do agree that the general setup is quite similar! I feel like that example might be trying to explain too much if we also override some standard type's serialize function. I could move it as an additional snippet below that one with a heading of Overriding standard type conversion?

Yes, let's do that thank you!
